Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
The major cause of foodborne illnesses is unsanitary food handling.

Answer to Question 2

C
Young women require more dietary iron than young men to replace blood losses during menstr-uation. There is no difference between iron absorption or hemoglobin recycling in young men versus young women. Higher iron intake does not compensate for lower muscle mass in women.
